2 different versions of same skin?

How to use both?

from JoeUser Forums
I have 2 different version of the Gloss skin by Pixel Pirate, and I was wondering if it's possible to have them both installed and useable at the same time? They're both called Gloss.wba, so I had to rename the second one to Gloss2.wba so it wouldn't overwrite the first one. I tried installing it with having the Gloss.wba installed and needless to say, it didn't work. What can I do so I can choose from either version in the windowblinds skin selector?

Try loading the first one in SkinStudio and saving it with a new name. Then delete the original Gloss directory and install the second one.

Well, honestly....I'm not quite sure how to do that. I've never really used SkinStudio, I'm not a skinner. >_<

1st open skinstudio. Then go to file open, when the open dialog window opens up go to windowblinds (a list of your windowblinds will open),find the Gloss WB and click it then click edit (this will load the WB in skinstudio. Next go to file then save as.. Name the original wb whatever you wish. Next go to my computer and find your windowblinds directory. Delete the directory named Gloss. Then go ahead and install the other gloss.wba. You'll see you have them both now.
